The 7180XL also has a hair collection chamber to help keep your bathroom counter free of unwanted hair, and the washable stainless steel razor heads are a breeze to clean. Simple and reliable, this comfortable-grip shaver can be fully charged in less than an hour, and the handy LED charging indicator means you'll never unexpectedly run out of power.

What Others Say
Not recommended for those with sensitive skin
This shaver was recommended to me by a friend and on the first day it shaves beautifully. My skin felt very smooth; but, after the next few days my hair growing back caused bumps. I had this problem with other shavers, but never to the extent that occurred using this shaver. I don't know why this shaver (which again, originally caused such a smooth shave) would mess up my face so much more than other shavers.
I give this shaver a 3 because I'm not sure if the shaver's the problem or my skin because it works great for my friend. In the end, it might just be me.
Great Customer Service, Terrible Product
I have used nothing but Norelco for 15-20 years. Great shavers.
I bought the 7180 last November. The battery gave out 2-3 months later (no, I did not overcharge). They sent a new shaver. About 1 month later, I was tapping the razor on the sink to shake out the shavings and the battery (I assume) was knocked out of position. The shaver stopped working. They sent a new one. About 1 month later, the shaver just stopped working for no known reason. They sent a new one. The new one has worked 6+ months. This week, it just stopped working.
Up until now, I have had nothing but great experiences with Norelco. I'm sure if I asked for a new razor, they'd give me one. I'm just tired of having them break. I don't think ... Read More
Great shave for a little money
For years I had a Norelco razor and when it broke (beyond repair) I decided to try a Remmington. Bad, bad, bad mistake! After three months of poor shaves and tender, red skin (razor burn) I bought a Norelco 7180. My skin no longer looks razor burned, I get a close shave (no need to "touch-up" before we go out in the evening) and the razor is very quiet, no loud buzzing sound.
Nice Shaver! (Belongs to my husband...I use it, too!)
I bought this about 14 months ago for a birthday gift for my husband. He has used it every day since.
My husband has thick, coarse, fast-growing facial hair. He never skips a day.
This shaver works great! Holds a charge. Shaves him smooth. Rinses clean.
I've never heard him complain.
When my husband isn't looking, I shave my legs with this. :) It's fast & easy and it works just great!!
I definitely recommend this.
electric razor
My husband ordered this razor but he didn't realize it was water rinsable He didn't particularly care for that feature, but it's OK
